I'm busy teaching myself to make themes for Go Launcher, but I guess my question applies to all 3rd party launchers that have theme capabilities. I need to find a way to get the package name for each application on my phone (and other commonly used applications) so that I can assign custom icons for each one. I know you can get the name from each packages AndroidManifest.xml but these don't always work, and in the case of built in applications (like the Motorola Media Gallery) I have no access to the apk itself.
To be a bit more clear, here is an example:
for Skype the package name is:
com.skype.raider
but the icon gets assigned to:
com.skype.raider.ui.SplashScreenActivity
(i got this from a tutorial, but they don't say where they get their info)
Check the /data/data folder. The folder names there might be helpful.

Hi All,
I am looking for someone to help create .apk for Android boxes.
This will be an ongoing partnership as we will update the apk with regular update every month which should automatically show on clients box.
If you think you are the right person and have time on your hands to create apk please let us know.
I would also like to know about how the firmwares can be altered on android boxes.
If you have hands on customised XBMC and other live streaming links we would like to create them as well within the apk and XBMC. Preference given to developers who have worked and developed something unique and have ideas of developing something new!
The main thing I am after is creating 1 or max of 3 files which will
1. Root the android box
2. Install the new apk file/firmware
3. Install the customised XBMC with our logo, etc.
I am looking at a quick option to connect android box with computer and run the files to achieve the above points.
Looking for a favourable reply.

I've been trying for hours now to do the simplest thing. I need some way to make a shortcut to these apps that is its own standalone APK. Here's why:
The long version: I have a Logitech Harmony Hub. It won't launch apps on the Nexus Player directly, but I have a workaround that involves installing Multilanguage Keymap Redefiner on the Nexus Player, and sending a keyboard command that I've mapped to trigger a specific app. For example, sending F1 launches Netflix. This works flawlessly for just about every app, but the exceptions are Google's own apps (Google Play Music and Google Play Movies). When I map a key to launch one of these two apps, nothing happens.
The short version: My Harmony Hub won't launch them directly.
Here's what I've tried so far:
Attempt: Creating an app with Tasker on my phone that launches the app in question. Basically cloning the app.
Result: This works on my phone to launch it, but once I install the app on the Nexus Player, it does nothing. Perhaps the Android TV version of the app is different from the phone version in such a way that it won't allow this to work.
Attempt: Installing Tasker on the Nexus Player so I could attempt the same steps as above, but from the Nexus Player
Result: Can't install Tasker - no way to accept the disclaimer on Android TV because it's not visible (accessibility settings don't help)
Attempt: Backing up Tasker on my phone using Helium, then installing Helium to restore a backup of Tasker that has already accepted the disclaimer.
Result: Tasker won't back up with Helium. It just creates an empty .json file. Everything else seems to back up fine, of course...
Attempt: Installing TV App Repo, and creating a shortcut to the apps in question
Result: unable to create the shortcuts because the apps in question are not downloaded, but are rather preinstalled.
Attempt: used this website: http://atvlauncher.trekgonewild.de/ to try to create an APK from the respective packages.
Result: According to the "apps" section of the Nexus Player settings, the package name for Google Play Music should be com.google.android.music, however, this did not work. Neither did com.google.music, com.android.music, or come.google.android.music.tv. When I say "didn't work," what I mean is that in each case, it said the package was not found. I thought this was odd since I used the same package name as what was shown in the Nexus Player's settings on the first try. If anyone knows the correct package names for these two apps, that may be the solution to the problem.
"Shortcut" apps won't work, because Multilanguage Keymap Redefiner will let you map commands to launch apps, but not shortcuts. Needs to be a standalone app. If anyone knows any other method besides the one I've proposed that will launch the apps in question with a single key press, I'd love to hear it. I know this is an obscure request, but it seems so simple and I'm really frustrated at this point. Not the type to give up at something like this, there's got to be a way, but I can't find it. As a side not, my Nexus Player is not rooted, and I'd really prefer not to go that route if there is any other option. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the most extensive AT&T TV (formerly DirecTV Now) and Fire TV repository thread.
Over the last few years I have gathered various AT&T/DirecTV Now apks and other Fire TV apks.

AT&T TV Android TV/ Fire TV FAQ
Which devices does this app work on?
Shield TV 2015/2017 Pro and non Pro versions, Nexus Player , Mi Box and other Android TV boxes .
Also confirmed that the app works on Sony Bravia Android TVs 2017 and up models, anything above version 2.0.13.05128 will require location spoofing on Sony TVs. Continue reading if you have questions about location spoofing
Q: Which version do I install modified unmodified or High Bitrate?
You can install either one, but they cannot be installed simultaneously.
Tip: if you have any other apps installed that require the amazon app store to be side loaded, use the _amazon version.
The higher bit rate apk has been tested to work on shield TV 2015/2017, it most likely works on other devices as well but i have not confirmed . If you have a low end device and limited bandwidth please use the DTV Now_Amazon apk. Also see .txt file in Higher Bitrate folder if you have questions.
I want to thank Veeco for discovering this mod. And IcerJo for beta testing the highbit apks for me .
and for additional bitrate testing done by IcerJo see post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78761171&postcount=372
Q : Why do you have a modified version, how is it different?
The modified version does not require the amazon app store to be installed. All that is removed from the modified version is the amazon app store verification.
No longer updated after version 2.0.15.02146 (Please see .txt file in the modified folder or read original post for more details)
Q: Cant log into the App getting Error 201
Check the email or password you are inputting. There may be an extra space in the email field.
For example: [email protected] com as opposed to [email protected]
Credit and Thanks for this tip goes to uicnren
Q: DirecTV Now Not Authorized Error Message
1. Remove Amazon App Store (if installed)
2. Clear Data and Cache
3. Settings -> Apps -> DirecTV Now -> Clear Data/Cache
4. Make sure you have the permissions set for the DirecTV app.
5. Settings -> Apps -> DirecTV Now -> Permissions -> Location (ON)
Credit and Thanks for this tip goes to Johnny14o
Q: I have no picture, sound or get a error 40 message. What should I do?
Some users have reported that running the modified version results in video and audio issues. If you are having such issues with the modified version, try the unmodified version.
Q: Live TV has no sound, but on demand works.
Check the audio settings from the shield settings menu, users have reported that turning of surround sound or adjusting other sound options helped them resolve the issue
Q: Application can’t determine location or won’t play any channel (Gray Screen).
Enable both storage and location permissions and also under location select use Wi-Fi to estimate location
Sometimes it may take multiple toggles for the new permissions to register and a device restart maybe required.
Or you may need to spoof your location if using other Android TV devices such as Sony X900e , MiBox, etc. See last below for Spoofing instructions
Q: How to spoof your Location?
See method#2 ,if you don’t want to purchase app cloner
Download app cloner and see video for steps.
. Credit goes to whiteboi-hakz for the video!
Location Spoofing is also necessary if you wan to run version 2.0.14.03143 and up on your Sony Android TVs .
Or if your Android TV device, fails to find your location even after you enabled the necessary settings and restarted the device multiple times. Once location is spoofed you do not need to re enable location and storage permissions.
Video on me using version .02146 on my Sony X900e with spoofed location.
App Cloner, is no longer available on the app store , see link to download. https://plus.google.com/communities/110152846393129525806
Premium features must be unlocked for location spoofing to work . Sideload the App Cloner apk and to purchase premium features search "App Cloner " on Google Play Store. Cost is $3.99
If you get cloned app is device locked message , re clone app but enable device lock and key in device # to do this go to
clone settings >launching options>device lock> put in the device #
Method #2
Credit and Thanks goes to marc.ientilucci
1. Enable Developer mode
2. Install Fake GPS ( link https://apkpure.com/fake-gps/com.blogspot.newapphorizons.fakegps )
3. In developer settings, choose the Fake GPS for mock locations
4. You will need the coordinates, so head over to google maps on your phone / pc and get the latitude and longitude of where you'd like to set your location.
5. Open the Fake GPS app and search - plug in your coordinates.
6. Click start

I don't see why it wouldn't and I'm sure if a update is required they will release it . But I'll upload it either way lol
Somewhat off topic but I also read a article recently that they were going to start beta testing again for VR . If they do we got to jump on it[emoji23]
Original article
https://www.cordcuttersnews.com/directv-now-will-let-you-watch-four-concurrent-live-streams-in-2019/
"AT&T has not commented on plans to bring this new feature to other devices, but AT&T typically brings new features to most of the devices they support. Hopefully this new DIRECTV NOW beta will not be limited to AR headsets."

No, I just made sure permissions were set first and location (via WiFi) was turned on.
Would you be so kind as to post the Fire TV version of Adult Swim? Would appreciate it greatly.

Here is the local channel search on their site. I would pick a popular city thats Eastern time , Central or Pacific. And go from there.
If you look through the other directv thread they have some apps that apparently work at spoofing the location. The posts were within the last month or two. I'll have to look at the thread over the weekend to see what apps worked

Ok found the best method for everyone to get around the location issues
Step 1 download app cloner
Step 2 put the dtv now apk on your phone (don't install it just put it on sd card)
Step 3 open app cloner and find your dtv now apk click it and under the privacy settings go-to spoof location
Set it where you want hit CLONE
Done! It won't be a issue ever again even with the future updates !
P.s app cloner is a paid app I suggest everyone buy it for future releases of dtv now
